The Potomac Heritage National Scenic Trail (PHNST)

DNR is partnering with the Potomac Heritage Trail Association and the National
Park Service to evaluate an alignment for hiking between Point Lookout State
Park and Marshall Hall, potentially connecting 11 DNR-managed lands, including
Chapman’s Landing (Chapman State Park), Smallwood State Park, Chicamuxen WMA,
Nanjemoy Natural Resource Management Area, Wilson Farm, Purse State Park, Chapel
Point State Park (on Port Tobacco River), Cedar Point (1,737 acres), New Towne
Neck (776 acres) and St. Inigoes (985 acres). A natural-surface, mostly off-road
trail in the Potomac River corridor, if feasible, would be a significant part of
a multi-use trail network between the Chesapeake Bay and two northern
termini—Point State Park in Pittsburgh and the northern terminus of the Laurel
Highlands Hiking Trail near Johnstown.
